Hi Linkue,
I understand the frustration to find a speed loss issue and packet loss. Many things can impact speeds, and we want to find out more about where you're seeing packet loss occur. Are you seeing you're in an outage area on our Cox Connect App right now? Are you always seeing the speed loss and is the packet loss always apparent, intermittent or random, or happening for you at a particular time of day? With two service appointments completed over the course of a couple months, it may be time to reserve a follow-up appointment. If the issue is on our end, then the field technician would have to escalate to maintenance and provide you a ticket that would begin with ESR and some numbers afterward.
We want to keep you connected and help isolate where the issue is happening. You may email us at Cox.Help@cox.com with your first and last name, address, and the details above with a link to this forum in the email as well. We can take a look at the modem while you experience the speed loss and packet loss. A follow-up service appointment may be needed, though it could be difficult to determine where the issue is happening if it's not present during the appointment. Based off of the findings of the service technician, he or she may be able to escalate to plant maintenance.
